I mean, no hate here, but lawn mower is probably the ugliest thing I've ever seen

Here is a thing:
This is the third tournament I had ever entered.

You should use your showcase to improve your bots. Skinning is also very easy.

yeah, decent skins would help his bots out a lot, anything is better than a single color skin

QFT.

Not an excuse anymore. You have full access to a showcase but have stopped posting. You're in your third tournament and have been told to put in the effort and improve. You have no excuse. Put in the effort, get your sh** together and improve. Post any bots you create into your showcase, listen to the criticism and improve as a result. Good luck.

Bit far LRA. Please tone it down, none of this conversation honestly is fair in Rob's thread but that attitude is pushing it.

Edited it but have left in the elements of hostility, because I am honestly not willing to neuter the message I am trying to send of being tired of excuses when if he puts some effort in he can definitely improve. I'll leave it up to you to decide if you want to edit the expletive out and/or warn me.

[Probably Rob]

I would also like to please ask people, if you see your groups, and your robot(s) have interchangeable weaponry, can you reveal in secret to me, your weapon choices for each opponent in your group (I'm aiming to have all of the groups be one video each, or 2 parters each)

[Probably Rob]

Heavyweight Groups 1, 4, 6, and 7 are now up!

[-iKa-]

I just realized that both of my HWs are in HW6, could that cause any problems?

[Philippa]

double ring spinner BS is best BS

[Probably Rob]

Ladies, and gentlemen... all splashes are officially up. Which means... the tournament can finally begin!

All interchangeable weaponry builders, please decide all of your Group weaponry for each opponent. I am giving 2 weeks from this post!

Only when they fight, I guess  ; -)  Have fun with those repairs

[Baconus_Yum]

I am against John.  Let's hope Spiky ummm...    pokes John?  IDK.

[F1Krazy]

Updated my initial opinions post to include the HW groups.

Hoo boy, HW Group 2 looks fun...

[Jammy Dodger]

HW Group 4 is just beautiful, because of Badniks boomslang robot remade in to DSL from a certain stock series 

[Avalanche]

Alright, time to make my predictions based on my group:
Chain of Impending Doom's Group:
COID VS Billet 5: ugh. This is going to be interesting, but I think Billet has it.
COID Vs Black Box: No idea what this bot is but I don't think it can get close enough to do what ever it does.
COID VS Gaming Grandpa: Huh? What even is gaming grandpa? I presume it's a rammer. It should be a war of attrition but I think I might beat him if the typhoon teeth do their work.
COID VS Silent Melody: ugh. This is simultaneously worrying and ok: if I somhow hit him at an angle towards the side I can possibly win the fight, but I doubt it will happen.
COID VS Underflow: Don't have a good feeling, this bot looks dangerous. But screw you you mechavore-disc using plebeian.
COID VS Wishbone: See "COID VS Underflow".

Blitz VS Admiral: Yeah no, I'm not gonna win. Blitz is a total glass cannon.
Blitz vs Aether: Not an impossible win. Should be a back and forth match.
Blitz vs charcoal: Is charcoal even IRL? Either way, should be a derpy match that I can win if I flip him onto his side.
Blitz VS problem: I should win this no problem but if he hits my slightly exposed sides then GG.
Blitz VS Venom 2: I should win this.
Blitz Vs Weevil: Have to end the match early or I lose.

Will do MW and HW in a bit.

we don't talk about that series here.

Oh sorry...

[Avalanche]

Right:
Krieg's group is MW 2.

Krieg VS Dead Heat: I have no idea what DH does but I could win this.
Krieg VS Grimm. Grimm wins, no surprises.
Krieg VS Malachite: Malachite will beat me.
Krieg VS Nebula: Yeah this is going to be a bloodbath. But screw you you mechavore-disc using plebeian.
Krieg VS the Silencer: Finally a mtch I can win!
Krieg VS Velocity: Should be able to outwedge him.

Raus MK. 1: Got high hopes for this bot, it's drum is pretty vicious.

Raus MK. 1 VS Billet 6: ****. I can pray, but Raus is a glass cannon. I will be forcibly inducted into Billet Club, methinks.
Raus MK. 1 VS Cole: Yeah, this isn't gonna go well. Might be able to give him a decent fight, who knows?
Raus MK. 1 VS Jester: I can win this. Just got to hope I dont get hit by the axe.
Raus MK. 1 VS Jugger Nugget: I think I can win this.
Raus MK. 1 VS One Punch Bones: bruh
Raus MK. 1 VS Piercing Headache: Little wary of their wedge but I think I can win.

Ironside Mk. 1 VS Black Cloud: I have enough top armor to win this, I reckon.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS Carbonize: I can pray, and that's about it. I have sh**e loads of armor, but I won't be able to move in with the hammer.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS Death Comes: I can pray I ram right into him, stop him, and whale on him. I'll probably survive the match thanks to my efforts with the side armor.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS john the robbut: Already sick of seeing john. Ironside in testing cannot self right well, so I am ****ed.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS Prepare For Trouble (And Make It Double): WHAT AM I EVEN LOOKING AT? I honestly don't know who will win.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS Spiky: I don't get what spiky is meant to do, but I presume it's a cross between a drumbot, a VS and a stiltbot. I think I can handle him unless he is outside my smartzone.
Ironside Mk. 1 VS Terminal Ferocity: I could probably wedge him, but he has a entire flipper to get through before I can hit his chassis. Gonna be tough.

The Executioner VS Cheap Surgery: I think my cutting teeth can keep his drum at bay while I hammer away with the axes.
The Executioner VS Ice Force 2: Is this a HS/Hammer hybrid? I don't know, but I'll probably lose.
The Executioner VS Mass Accelerator: PRESSURE WILL END UP IN MY BLOODY NIGHTMARES MARK MY WORDS.
The Executioner VS Poison Viper: If I wedge him, I might be able to batter him down. Depends if my treads have enough speed behind em.
The Executioner VS Propeller Head Mk. 3: that's just lazy doge. just no. He'll win, obviously, but please never do this to us again.
The Executioner VS The Falkirk Wheel: I will absolutely savour a victory here. I've got a lot of hope riding on this match.

[Probably Rob]

Because of the roster size, the brackets will be as follows:

Lightweight rules:

7 robots will be randomly placed into any of the 8 groups. The two robots in each group with the highest amount of points will win that group, and advance into the next round. The 16 winners will be randomly placed into another and any of the 4 groups (4 robots in each group). From there, only 1 robot from each group can advance into the single elimination round race to the finals. Matches for the single elimination round are decided via another random drawing.


Middleweight rules:

7 robots will be randomly placed into any of the 8 groups. The two robots in each group with the highest amount of points will win that group, and advance into the next round. The 16 winners will be randomly placed into another and any of the 4 groups (4 robots in either group). From there, only 1 robot from each group can advance into the single elimination round race to the finals. Matches for the single elimination round are decided via another random drawing.
